East
end motorists who use Innes Road for their afternoon commute
may want to use an alternate route as work begins on building
an additional lane on Innes Road between the Hwy. 417
off-ramp and Blair Road.

Innes
Road will be reduced to two lanes in the eastbound direction
most of the day. Three lanes of traffic will be open during
the afternoon to accommodate peak period traffic.

The
widening of Innes Road will increase capacity for eastbound
traffic by providing an additional through lane between
the Highway 417 west off-ramp and Blair Road during Confederation
Line construction. The construction should be completed
in September.

Motorists
and cyclists should anticipate traffic delays and are
advised to practice extra caution while following the
directional signage around the construction zone. OC Transpo
service and pedestrian access will be maintained throughout
construction.
